FOOD INFORMATION

A portion of fish and chips can deliver as much as 50g of saturated fat -- more than twice the 20g recommended limit,

and its total fat content can be as much as 90g, way above the 70g threshold for a whole day.

A cheeseburger with bacon and fries can deliver a whopping 84g of total fat and 37g of saturated fat in the worst case, a new study by the Food Safety Authority of Ireland (FSAI) has found.

In particular, they should avoid too much saturated fats which can send cholesterol levels soaring and put you at risk of a heart attack, while too much fat of any type in your diet can make you obese and unhealthy. The FSAI's chief specialist in food science, Dr Wayne Anderson, called on fast food outlets to provide healthier meals for customers.

People should eat no more than 20g of saturated fat in a day -- anything more than 10g in a single meal is considered a high level. The daily threshold for total fat is 70g, and foods containing more than 35g are considered high fat.

FOOD LABELS

Shoppers will have more information about where their food comes from under a new policy, which just started.

Labels on most fresh meats, along with some fruits, vegetables and other foods, will now list where the food originated. In the case of meats, some labels will list where the animal was born, raised and slaughtered.

If you have instant pudding mix, is it ok to cook it the same way you would make cook and serve pudding?

I bought pumpkin spice flavored pudding to make a traditional pudding pie, but unfortunately, it only comes in instant. I don't like the idea of not cooking my pudding, even though the directions say to just mix the pudding with cold milk. Can I still make the instant mix the cook and serve way?

Do not put it in a microwave or you will go back in time..
